  2. Rubbish. I prefer at the end of the line. Your method just wastes lines, and it buys nothing. Giving a thumbs down for that is utterly childish.

  3. All of the code I work on and have ever worked on uses raw pointers. There is no "should". There are new featutes in the language for sure, but the original methods work fine as well.

  4. She's allocating enough memory using C function malloc to hold an 'int' value. This is typically 4 bytes, but not always. The cast was not necessary in C. SIZEOF provides the number of bytes requured. *num_pointer = 42; // asignes the value 42 to num_pointer. The * dereferences the pointer.
